This week Lisa puts Steve and Debbie in the hot seat for a rapid-fire (okay… not-so-rapid-fire) round of "This or That." Two options, gut-instinct answers, and a whole lot of friendly disagreement — with plenty of insider reasoning packed in along the way. Some are total no-brainers, a few get controversial, and Lisa tries (and mostly fails) to predict everyone's answers. It's a fun, easy listen packed with real opinions from travel agents who live and breathe Disney. Play along at home and see how many you match!

Most people know Papago Park for the hole in the wall, or the famous Phoenix Zoo, but overlooking it all, on top of a hill, is one of the strangest landmarks in Arizona: a white pyramid. Many locals have no idea what it is — or what's in it.

Some local beaches are closed after bacteria was detected in the water. And, county officials have closed three parks for the entire month of August because of the heat. Plus, new signs for tourists are up in Tijuana for easier access to destinations. NBC 7's Monica Hernandez has the top stories alongside Meteorologist Brooke Martell with your forecast for August 2, 2026.
Mark Booker | Proverbs 4:5-10 | This message digs into why wisdom is portrayed as something to be desired, embraced, and loved - not just studied. We look at how rightly ordered love, and loving Jesus above all, is the key to the full and flourishing life for which we were made.
On July 30th, Barb Salvo died. She was a high-regarded science teacher at Washington Park High School in Racine for many years - and after retiring from Park, she worked with many of the science education majors at Carthage. During her years at Park, she was the faculty advisor for the school's science team, which was one of the finest in the state. This interview from spring of 1998 came shortly after the team won the state championship- which in turn qualified them for the National Science Olympiad. The interview is with Barb Salvo and with three students who were members of the science team: Jeremiah James, Amanda Schneider, and Nick Barootian.

The Moonlight Serenaders 14-lice big band has been around for decades. The group plays a free concert in Rice Park in Saint Paul, next Wednesday, August 5, 7 to 9pm. The group's current director, percussionist Dan Marrs, and former director and current trumpeter, Linda Ness, talked to Phil Nusbaum about the group. To a greater degree than much contemporary jazz, a big band relies on all the players reading what's been composed and arranged. So Phil asked Dan and Linda about keeping everybody focused on the arrangement.

Today's guest is Hyoju Park, pastry chef and co-owner of Madeleine de Proust Pâtisserie in Melbourne, Australia. Her bakery and creative studio specializes in madeleines, the small French sponge cakes known for their shell-like shape. Hyoju's creations are anything but traditional and incorporate unexpected flavors, textures, and designs. She joins host Jessie Sheehan to talk about discovering madeleines for the first time when she was 14 in Korea, training in London, and how she and her business partner, Rong Yao Soh, started Madeleine de Proust as a pop-up before opening a brick-and-mortar. She also talks about their book, “Madeleine: Simple Bakes for Every Mood,” which has recipes ranging from Earl Grey and French toast madeleines to matcha red bean mochi, lemon meringue, and black truffle. Then, Hyoju walks through the Pink Carnation Madeleines recipe from the book, which was inspired by her mom and includes several components: a lemon yuzu ganache, black tea ganache, yuzu syrup and glaze, and pink chocolate enrobage.

A late-night visit to Rock Creek Park in Washington, D.C., turned into an unforgettable encounter when Kevin came face to face with a towering black figure standing silently just inside the tree line.

Kevin joins From the Shadows Podcast to share that chilling experience and other strange paranormal encounters that have followed him throughout his life through prophetic dreams, spiritual encounters, and unexplained events. An accomplished Blues musician, he also shares fascinating personal encounters with legendary Blues artists, the folklore surrounding the mythical “crossroads,” and the mysterious connection between and the spiritual side of music, faith, and the unexplained.

Stundenlang durch die Dünen. Keine Menschenseele, nur Sand, Wind und das Licht, dem hier schon so viele Maler verfallen sind.Michi war rund um Ostende unterwegs, draußen in Westflandern, wo die Küste plötzlich leer wird. Er steht in einem Naturpark, der sich selbst den Flughafen für Vögel nennt, und nimmt die längste Straßenbahn der Welt bis nach De Haan, einem Belle-Époque-Ort so unversehrt, dass hier sogar Einstein einmal wohnte. Dann steht er mitten in den Dünen vor einem Schild. FKK. Und muss sich entscheiden: Blankziehen oder nicht……Am Ende bleibt ein Bild, das kaum jemand kennt. In Oostduinkerke reiten Fischer auf mächtigen Brabanter Pferden brusttief ins Meer und fangen Krabben so wie vor fünfhundert Jahren. Der einzige Ort der Welt, an dem das noch lebt. UNESCO-Erbe der Menschheit.Und ob Michi wirklich blank gezogen hat am Nacktstrand, erfahrt ihr in dieser Folge.—

Andrew Jenkins, the Traitors star, joins James Smith for a raw conversation about resilience, identity, and rebuilding a life after everything is taken away. At 21, Andrew was pronounced dead at the scene of a catastrophic car accident, lost half his skull and over half his blood, and was told he'd never walk, talk, or recognise anyone again. He walked out of that hospital and then spent 15 years suffering in silence behind a good body, a nice house, and a successful banking career.
Stephanie Rolfs, like many Bay Area residents, has spent a lot of time looking out over the bay, watching as ships come and go. The cargo ships in particular are so big and obvious as they sit out in the middle of the bay, south of the Oakland-San Francisco Bay Bridge and north of the San Mateo bridge. She wondered, how do those ships know where to park? Are there invisible parking "spots" they're pulling up to? How does it all work out there? We called Vessel Traffic Services to find out.

In Part 2, Aft joins us to chat about the band—Top Chefs. We start with the story of how TJ met Aft. A mutual friend of his and Loveberry's, Lucas Hanson, put on a show at DNA Lounge called "Liam Berry and Friends." TJ was just getting out of high school at the time. They asked him to join them on stage, something he'd never really done before. TJ had been playing smaller sets in restaurants, but joining a band at a bona fide venue was new for him. Loveberry (Liam) had met Aft at something called a "sound gig" for a set they would play as part of the effort to keep People's Park in Berkeley from being closed. They called Loveberry because he had a PA and they needed someone to run sound. Loveberry didn't really know what that meant at the time, and he might've been mistaken for a guy named Jeff whom they'd been expecting. Nevertheless, Aft was one of the few people who was nice to Loveberry that day in Berkeley. The band ended up needing a guitar player, and so a mutual friend told Aft that he should have this guy, Loveberry, play guitar with him. They agreed and ending up borrowing a guitar from a member of the crowd. Aft later invited Loveberry to a rehearsal back in SF. Afterthough, aka Aft, joins the conversation at this point. He recounts his version of that day in Berkeley. It was still early pandemic enough that folks were wearing masks. He liked Loveberry's playing that day enough to ask him over. They played a couple of shows as "Aft and His Band" or "Aft … backed up by (various musicians.)" Aft was also asked to play with "Liam Berry and Friends." At that DNA Lounge show, Aft met TJ and the trombone player Will, who's also in Top Chefs now. Aft had played in bands for years, including with a set of twins who played piano and bass. But those guys moved to New York around the time he connected with Loveberry. And soon after that, TJ and other members of today's Top Chefs. There's some collective fuzziness around when this all went down, but that doesn't matter. It was the beginning of coming out of a worldwide pandemic when time began to get totally skewed for everyone. But also, they were just busy playing music and making friends. I ask the three of them who came up with the idea to play shows on the stoop of Aft's childhood home on Scott Street. Loveberry and TJ credit Aft with the idea. Liam talks about arrangements that Aft was putting together with complex horn sections. And in those sessions, one of the musicians started a habit of saying, "Yes, chef" to Aft when he was asked to do something. That came from watching cooking competition shows. The dude was messing with Aft, so at the end of a show one night, when Aft was introducing band members, he called this guy "the top chef" to get him back. The name stuck for the entire band after that. There's a story about TJ's Filipina grandma, who lives near DNA Lounge, making Filipino BBQ on a stick and madeleine cookies for the band. TJ wasn't sure what to do with the food, so he set it out in the crowd while they played a song called, "Everybody Eats." It was a whole thing, and something Aft says he wants to bring back. I ask the fellas whether anyone has ever compared their Stoop Sessions to NPR's Tiny Desk music series. There's a resounding "yes" from all three. Then Aft shares that Top Chefs actually shot a Tiny Desk audition video on the stoop. It was early 2024, and despite not making it onto the hit public media show, they realized that they had something in shows on the stoop. In 2025, thanks to a fundraiser show, the band went to South by Southwest in Austin. After that, they played in the Haight, Hunters Point, Bernal Heights, downtown. Then Top Chefs started ramping up the quality of the videos. In late 2025, just before they planned to take a break from the band, Aft called a media day. The video of that performance went viral. Top Chefs' Stoop Sessions had arrived. It must've been around that time that my wife and I discovered them and immediately knew we'd found something special. And it was basically in our backyard. This coming Sunday, Aug. 2, they'll be at Chapel of the Flowers in Berkeley. If you're in the South Bay next weekend, they're playing San Jose Jazz on Friday, Aug. 7. There's a show in Levi's Plaza in The City on Saturday, Sept. 12. And for more shows and info, and to lose yourself in videos of past Stoop Sessions, follow @stoopsessionslive. The band account is @topchefsband. Their website is topchefsband.com. Sign up for their email list to learn about upcoming Stoop Sessions. That's the only space they share that info with folks.

And Todd Blanche keeps trying to get over the Judiciary speedbump. ----- The biggest story in legal last week was an unfortunate guerrilla antagonizing of a couple making out on a park bench... who just happened to be a Wachtell partner and associate. And now an internal HR problem is suddenly national news. Say what you will about the person who filmed it, but "get a room" was good advice. Meanwhile, Todd Blanche's confirmation hearings continued to drag on, with former supporters abandoning him and even some Republicans wondering why he can't commit to ruling out a January 6 slush fund. A new book says Blanche once feared bringing frivolous cases. He seems to have gotten over that. And Elena Kagan publicly claims her colleagues get a "bad rap" for supporting Trump. She's wrong and making these statements unfairly maligns her liberal colleagues facing personal attacks for their work. Oh, and John Yoo is back in the news.
